SALFORD: The Kings Arms

SUN 9TH JUN, 2013 Starts at 4pm

The cult dark comedy from Mike Heath is back with a brand new production from the award winning Elysion Productions to celebrate 10 years of Studio Salford.

The Americans have struck France with no apparent motive. Kenneth, war correspondent for the BBC, finds himself publicly disgraced and silenced after expressing personal disgust at the actions of the attackers.

Kenneth's girlfriend, Jennifer Talia, royal correspondent for the BBC and ceaseless social climber, finds herself caught up in a propaganda trap after being given a position of media power. Her task - to detract the media away from the war...

The Rise and Demise of Kenneth Kennedy-Smythe, (winner of Best New Writing, Best Director, Best Male Actor, Best Female Actor from the 2006 run) is a darkly comic political satire about two characters who have to make serious choices, exploring the power of the media during times of war.

Elysion Productions return to The King Arms after the acclaimed national tour of Dev's Army to be part of the 10th year celebrations of Studio Salford.
